Second Week of the Italian Cuisine in the World
Ambasciata d’Italia in Irlanda
The aim of the Week of the Italian Cuisine in the World is to celebrate Italian culinary traditions as an important part of Italian identity and culture.After last year's great success, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, together with numerous other parties, has organised the Second Week of the Italian Cuisine in the World. The initiative has been met with great interest and the program for the week includes many different events across more than 110 countries.Italian cuisine has its origins not only in popular culture, where humble dishes were born, but also in the very sophisticated culinary traditions which reached their peak in the Renaissance courts. Italian cuisine comes from that same mix of history, cultural exchanges, creativity, spirit of initiative and passion for what is good and what is beautiful which are at the foundation of all of the most elevated manifestations of Italian culture. The Week of the Italian Cuisine in the World is also an occasion to promote the Mediterranean Diet, a lifestyle that makes Italy one of the healthiest countries in the world.We are delighted to introduce to you the numerous activities which will take place in Ireland, thanks to the many partners in the Italian food industry in this country under the coordination of the Embassy of Italy, the Italian Institute of Culture, the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Dublin and ENIT. The program is extremely rich and interesting, covering many gastronomic and cultural elements. It is our hope that a vast public will take this opportunity to learn more about Italian cuisine, by attending the scheduled events and combining the pleasure of the palate with cultural enrichment.

Contemporary Italian cuisine is infused with flavours derived from neighbouring cultures: French and Austrian influences are evident in the Northern cuisines, in dishes such as gateau di patate and polenta. Perhaps the most powerful, wonderful and inspiring influences are rooted in the North African and Middle-Eastern cultures. Ingredients such as aubergines, peppers, cinnamon, pistacchio nuts, mint and Persian saffron combined with cooking techniques brought to bear on Sicilian couscous, fried cannoli, candied fruits and flat breads and brought to life the southern Italian cuisine in terms of seasoning, piquancy, sweetness and aromas.
Dunne & Crescenzi during the “Settimana della Cucina Italiana nel mondo” sets out to give homage to the Middle-Eastern and North African influences on the Italian cuisine and sheds light on the positivity of immigration and integration during these troubled times.

Giuliana Adamo (TCD) will lead us on a journey from the Mexican origins of cacao, where it was either a sacred symbol or their ancient currency, to its totally different meaning and use in Europe, as one example of the dramatic consequences following Columbus’ discovery of America and Cortez’s Conquista. An historical rendering, rich in curious details, of clash of civilizations, papal debates, artistic representations and changes in society following the importation in Europe of the so-called “Food for the Gods” which keeps on enchanting us all today.After the book presentation, Febvre Wines will present Villa Banfi's Rosa Legale wine, a perfect match for the Pernigotti chocolates that Little Italy Ltd will offer.
